“The ULP is so thrilled to be partnering again with the Latin Tracking Board, NALIP, and the Black List on this vital initiative,” said Gloria Calderón Kellett. “Latine people are almost 20% of the U.S. population yet we are still severely lacking in on camera and behind the scenes representation. Opportunity and access can make a difference and that is exactly what this initiative does. So grateful to Netflix and excited to see all the talent that has yet to be discovered.
“The success of scripts from previous Latinx Lists speaks for itself: Sundance Festival premieres, international distribution, writers room staffing, studio writing assignments, and beyond,” noted Black List founder. “It’s inevitable that the writers selected for the 2022 List will have similar experiences. We’re in the business of finding the best possible writers and introducing them to the best possible industry partners to realize their ambitions.
“As Latinx executives in Hollywood, we are thrilled to once again join our partners in this initiative to highlight the talent and stories the industry should be green-lighting,” says the Latin Tracking Board’s Diego Nájera of the hopes for the 2022 Latinx List. “Access, storytelling, and professional advancement are at the center of NALIP’s work, and we are thrilled with the careers that are unfolding for previous Latinx List writers,” added ALIP board chair Karla Pita Loor. “We can’t wait to see the stories that come out of this year’s powerful collaboration with the Latin Tracking Board, The Untitled Latinx Project and The Black List.”Writers should be Latinx and currently residing currently in the U.S.
